Perpetrator of Kraków terrorist attack dies of injuries in hospital
The man, who can now be named as Michał Oksiński, is believed to have killed nine people.
On Saturday, Michał Oksiński, the perpetrator of a terrorist attack in Kraków, Poland, died from his injuries in a hospital. The 24-year-old drove through the city centre, firing randomly from his car and killing six people, including four Polish citizens and two foreign nationals. Two police officers, Jakub Kulik and Artur Morański, engaged Oksiński in a firefight and both sustained serious injuries.
Two local surgeons, who happened to be nearby, provided crucial emergency aid to the officers. Oksiński underwent emergency surgeries and initially remained in critical condition. However, on Monday, provincial police announced that Oksiński had passed away in the hospital. Both Kulik and Morański had since recovered from their comas and their conditions were reported as "serious but stable."
The attack left a total of 22 people injured, comprising citizens from the UK, Austria, Germany, Russia, and Portugal.
